What Machines Will AcuTrax Run On?
AcuTrax can run in any of the following environments:
- Windows 9X,XP
- SCO Unix
- IBM AIX
- Virtually any other UNIX based computer system
- If you are using a system other than one of those listed above,
such as an IBM AS/400 or DEC VAX, AcuTrax can run on a Windows
9X based PC or Windows 2000 network and be interfaced to your
system.
AcuTrax Can Be Interfaced Into Your Existing System
AcuTrax can be interfaced into your existing system
in varying degrees. AcuTrax can provide supporting transactions to
send to your order entry system. This can save a great deal of data
entry time by eliminating the need to manually enter the number of
cylinders shipped and returned into each sales order. When combined
with TrukTrax, DataWeld's truck based invoicing system, orders can
be confirmed as delivered eliminating the need to do any data entry
work on a sales order when the driver returns. Countless hours of
data entry time and related data entry errors can be eliminated.
AcuTrax gives you the capability to interface into such
popular systems such as Solomon, Platinum, or SAP.
Can AcuTrax Be a Stand Alone System?
Yes. AcuTrax can work as a totally stand-alone cylinder
tracking system with no required interface into an existing accounting
system. You will be able to perform all cylinder tracking, reporting
and inquiry functions through AcuTrax.
What Type of Handheld Computer Unit Do I Need?
AcuTrax takes advantage of the Palm OS devices such
as the Symbol SPT 1800 or the Symbol SPT 1846 Radio Frequency handheld
computer. The choice of the handheld computer is determined by your
requirements.
Driver Friendly
With the touch screen interface offered by AcuTrax,
your truck drivers immediately become expert computer operators. Why?
Because AcuTrax displays the available options on the touch sensitive
screen of the handheld computer in a clear, easy to use format. All
the driver has to do is to touch the option he wants.
Ease of Use
When the driver leaves the dock, AcuTrax offers the
capability to carry a database showing your cylinders and where they
are located. Depending upon the size of your cylinder population,
you may even be able to store your entire database of cylinders in
the handheld!
With this type of information in the drivers' hands,
all he has to do is scan the cylinder; AcuTrax already knows the contents
of the cylinder. AcuTrax will print out a receipt showing the serial
number and contents of the cylinder. This powerful feature saves time
and eliminates data entry mistakes.
Another powerful feature of AcuTrax shows up when the
cylinder is returned. If the customer returns a cylinder that was
not shipped to them, AcuTrax notifies the driver immediately. With
this type of immediate verification, the driver can notify the customer
of potential cylinder discrepancies before he leaves the customer
site. AcuTrax gives you the ability to track cylinders with a level
of accuracy impossible with previous systems.
